The phrase is borrowed from the sport of ice hockey, but now applies in many contexts.

In hockey, a crude but effective save where the puck is diverted not with the end of the curved stick but with the handle. The player simply falls on the ice or bats at the puck with the stick. No points for style, and often fails, but a save is a save.

In other contexts, whenever a "player" manages to pull out a situational "save" at the last instant via reckless, feckless or random methods. As in financial markets, when institutions manage to move the market up in the last minutes of trading thus ensuring an "up" day, even though a "down" day was in the making.
Did you see the 100 point stick save in the run up to the market bell? You gotta give the PPT credit, that was a thing of beauty.

In the same vein as a cock block, a cock save is to save a cock from irreparable harm. "Irreparable harm" here can refer to an ugly/disease-ridden/non-human female, or to an embarrassing/potentially lethal inanimate object, any of which a healthy human penis should never come into contact in the fist place.

A cock save may be mistaken for a cock block until the next day when the person affected can look upon the situation with sober eyes.

The actions that amount to a cock block and cock save are usually the same, the only difference being that a cock block is always a bad thing and a cock save is always a good thing.
Mike: I was so drunk I almost fucked that softball player/billy goat/toaster. I mean I was pants down, tent pitched, ready to go. What happened?

Dwight: I knocked your ass out with the waffle iron for being an idiot.

Mike: Thanks for the cock save, amigo.
